Overview

Vania is a Attacker that also have supportive capabilities. She can provide Status Gravity.pngDelayReduce a foe's filled charge diamonds by 1
, Status Charm.pngCharmedAttacks are slightly limited
, a dispel and Status DarkResDown.pngDark DEF DownDEF is lowered for dark DMG
after 5★, making her a pretty viable character in solo battles and hard raid battles such as Ultimate Bahamut where players would want those debuffs. In addition, she is another character that suits well with the current Stamina/Charge Attack based teams in Dark, gaining a Dagger proficiency at 5★ (which features characters such as Ferry (Grand), Eustace (Dark) and Nier), while having good Charge Attack damage and a Status Uplift.pngCharge Bar +Instantly boosts Charge Bar by

providing 50% Unique modifier and possible Status TripleUp.pngGuaranteed TAGuaranteed triple attack regardless of Triple Attack Lowered debuffs
, as well as her passive giving her various attack specs and bonus damage consistently.

Overall, Vania is a very potent character after her 5★, and definitely a consideration to be used in many team compositions. Her major issue is the long cooldown and relatively short duration times, but with the fairly high numbers and basically a infinite uptime on her support skill, that is not a great issue at all. She fulfills in the main attacker role in a dagger proficient team, and can capitalize in the various buffs such a setup provides with her Damage Cap and Bonus Damage effects.

How to Play

Vania's skills are not difficult to use. However, they do require some understanding of the battle/raid that you are currently participating in.

  • Ability Testament++.png Testament200%-400% Dark damage to a foe and remove 1 buff (Damage cap: ~635,000).
    At level 55:
    Damage increased to 350%-500%.
    At level 100:
    Damage increased to 600%-700%.
    Damage cap increased to ~800,000.

    is used whenever you need a dispel. It can also be used to cap DEF Down, but remember that that effect requires a Vampyr Drop to be activated.

    .
    is used to inflict Status Gravity.pngDelayReduce a foe's filled charge diamonds by 1
    . Its Charge Boost upon successfully debuffing is also quite relevant, so it is useful to consider the timing to use this skill. In addition, it is important to understand the potential resistances to Status Gravity.pngDelayReduce a foe's filled charge diamonds by 1
    in some raids during some periods, to avoid casting the skill and gaining nothing.
  • Ability Charm Throb.png Charm ThrobInflict Status Charm.pngCharmedAttacks are slightly limited

    on a foe.
    Gain Status TripleUp.pngGuaranteed TAGuaranteed triple attack regardless of Triple Attack Lowered debuffs

    .
    At level 95:
    When 1 Status Vampyr Drop 1.pngVampyr DropBonus Dark DMG effect / Attack specs are boosted based on number of Vampyr Drops (Can't be removed)
    is consumed:

    Multiplier: PerpetuityDuration: 3 turns
    and Status Routine Step.pngDouble StrikeAttacks twice each turn
    Duration: 1 turn
    .
    should probably be used whenever off cooldown in most situations. Vania starts with one stack of Status Vampyr Drop 1.pngVampyr DropAttack specs are boosted based on number of Vampyr Drops (Can't be removed)
    so it is possible to open with this skill. After 3 turns of Status Blood Queen.pngBlood QueenATK is boosted / DEF is boosted / Bloodkin Bats activates at end of turn (Can't be removed)
    , she would most likely be able to cast her Charge Attack, replenishing her Status Vampyr Drop 1.pngVampyr DropAttack specs are boosted based on number of Vampyr Drops (Can't be removed)
    stacks and getting attack specs from her passive which would cover the downtime nicely. However, since it consumes the stack to obtain the augmented effects, players cannot use this skill turn 1 while also relying on her to apply Status DarkResDown.pngDark DEF DownDEF is lowered for dark DMG
    .

Priorities

Prioritize her Support Ability as well as Debuff Success Rate to play around her Status Charm.pngCharmedAttacks are slightly limited
effect. Then consider maxing Dark ATK and Charge Attack Damage to improve her damage output. The rest is personal preference, but since she has Status DoubleUp.pngGuaranteed DAGuaranteed double attack regardless of Double Attack Lowered debuffs
